Vampire Kiss

The Vampire Kiss is a great cocktail to add to your repertoire of halloween drink recipes.

Its base ingredients are tequila, lime juice, raw honey, and rhubarb syrup. Quite simple.

For the tequila, I like using Tierras Blanco Organic Tequila. As for the rhubarb, I prefer using it as a syrup rather than from its natural state. However, you can use plain rhubarb.

This is how.

Simply, cut it into pieces, add water, and let it simmer over medium heat. Add raw honey to sweeten. You can add more depending on how sweet you want the puree mixture to be.

How to Make Rhubarb Syrup

This will make about 32 oz (or one bottle) worth of rhubarb syrup.

Ingredients

• 8 stalks of organic rhubarb
• 4 cups of water
• 2 cups of stevia

Directions

1. Chop the rhubarb up into small thin slices
2. Pour the water into a sauce pan and heat over medium-heat
3. Add the stevia into the boiling water, and stir until dissolved
4. Add the rhubarb
5. Bring to a boil, then turn down to medium-heat
6. Simmer until the water is red and the rhubarbs are mushy. 10-15 minutes
7. Strain the mixture into a bowl
8. Squeeze and press on the rhubarb bits to get as much juice out as possible
9. Let it cool. Pour into a glass bottle

Now that we have our rhubarb syrup, let's jump right into our cocktail.

The name stems from the dark, ruby red color derived from the sweet and tart rhubarb.

Add enough of this, and you'll get a blood red concoction that'll tint your lips with red, hence the name
